You can basically get a membership for just $20 with this deal, and it'll help you save money all year long.

With the holiday season rapidly approaching, it makes a lot of sense to look into ways to save money. While there are a lot of good ways to do so, saving money day-to-day is essential, and a Costco membership is a great way to buy in bulk and rack up savings on your groceries, gas and more. Right now you can get a yearlong Gold Star membership for $65 and get a $45 gift card back in the process. You can also get the Executive Gold Star membership instead for $130, and get the same amount on a gift card there, too.

We recommend making your purchase sooner rather than later if you want to take advantage of this offer. Keep in mind that it's only available to new customers or those whose memberships have been expired for more than 18 months. If you've been thinking of picking up an annual Costco membership, this deal puts more cash back in your pocket.

Hey, did you know? CNET Deals texts are free, easy and save you money.

With a Costco Gold Star subscription, you'll get one membership card for your household. It allows you to shop at any Costco warehouse worldwide, as well as online at Costco.com. While Costco is a great place to save on groceries and other everyday essentials, it offers a lot more. A Gold Star membership also means you can use Costco's gas stations and pharmacies, as well as Costco's optical and hearing aid centers. Costco frequently has seasonal plants, decor, furniture, electronics and other products as well.

After you sign up, you'll receive your bonus shop card via email within two weeks. The card can be used both in-store and online, so you can use it right away. Just remember that after you pay through StackSocial, you'll have until Jan. 31, 2025, to redeem the membership at Costco or you may not be able to take advantage of the deal. StackSocial recommends that you redeem this deal sooner if you decide to go for this deal.

Now that groceries are going to cost you a little less, check out our gift guide on the best toys for kids, because it's always nice to treat them.
